BARBERVILLE, Fla.  David Gravel and Big Game Motorsports are on another level.

The 2024 World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car title was something they worked hard for. It eluded them for three seasons straight. But they have no plans of taking their foot off the gas after finally capturing the championship. They want to go on a run for the record books. Not just one title, but many.

The easiest path toward winning a championship is winning races, and thats exactly what they did this week at Volusia Speedway Park.

First, it was Sundays dominant drive when Gravel led every lap. Monday dished out more of a challenge to the Watertown, Conn., native. He lined up third and slipped back to fourth on the opening circuit, but it didnt matter.

Gravel methodically worked the Cody Jacobs-prepared No. 2 forward. Back to third on Lap 5. Up to second on Lap 11. And ripping the lead away from Giovanni Scelzi on Lap 15. That was all she wrote. Gravel opened the lead, survived heavy traffic, and took the checkered flag with nearly a two-second advantage to sweep the Bike Week Jamboree.

Confidence has been high, Gravel said. All off-season it was high. After DIRTcar Nationals, it was high. To sweep the weekend feels really, really good. Now were going to a lot of different places, different sizes, places we havent been very often. Its going to be a wildcard. Its going to be a battle and fight every night no matter what.

It was a significant victory for Gravel. His second straight elevated his career total with The Greatest Show on Dirt to 105, equaling him with Joey Saldana for seventh most all-time. It was also his seventh World of Outlaws triumph at Volusia, tying him with Brad Sweet for the second most.

Its early, but Gravel has already built a 44-point advantage over Logan Schuchart as he looks to defend his title. He and Tod Quirings team want to put together a stretch of sprint car racing that wont be forgotten, and they look to be well on their way. They have two wins, five podiums, and a 2.33 average finish through six races.

For us, were trying to build a point lead early, and so far were doing that, Gravel said. Im really excited for this season. I think its going to be pretty special. We did a lot of special things last year, but we keep wanting to do special things.

Behind Gravel it was a wild battle for second as the race wound down. Schuchart eventually emerged over Scelzi and Carson Macedo. It was he and the Shark Racing teams third podium of the year, which already equals their total from the entire 2024 campaign. They came out ready for a rebound season, and so far theyve delivered.

I felt really good there, Schuchart said. Had a cool little race with Gio (Scelzi) and Carson (Macedo), and I actually felt like we were catching David there at the end, definitely aggressive. Very happy for our team. I felt like we learned a lot here in Florida to start the year. Definitely a much better start than last year, and I feel like we have some speed.

Scelzi slipped to third after leading the opening 14 circuits aboard the KCP Racing No. 18. It was his first podium of the season after struggling last month.

I saw it getting dirtier in (Turns) 1 and 2 especially across the middle, which means the bottom is obviously throwing up to the middle, Scelzi said. I didnt really go down there until I got in traffic behind David and stuck with him for a bit and then kind of just made a block move on myself and let Logan by me. Just proud of my guys. This is a huge rally from DIRTcar (Nationals) to here. Im proud. Its easy to get discouraged early in the year. It is a long year, but Charlotte creeps up on you.

Carson Macedo and Jacob Allen completed the top five.
